Episode 171 - Kyle from Hudson North Cider

Welcome to episode 171! Tonight, Tad and I crack open a conversation with Kyle Sherrer, the founder of North Hudson Ciders. We dive into Kyle’s journey building a cider brand that’s not just about great taste—but also about giving back. From trail stewardship to community support, Kyle shares how Hudson North Ciders is raising the bar with volunteer work and donations that help keep our favorite outdoor spaces alive and well. We also dig into DOGE’s recent decision to slash funding for local volunteer groups, and unpack some updates on the ever-evolving railroad saga. Need a sticker?
